Hm I don’t know, the dog could even be his wife’s dog.. Maybe he doesn't like the dog.. DH didn't like Peanut when I first brought him home.. took him about 3 weeks but still. I think it’s hard to say if you don’t know the whole story.
Sometimes I go to pick up Peanut and he cowards down, and acts like I’m going to kick him or something. Peanut has never been abused. If someone were to witness that, would they think he was abused?? Probably.
I also think it could be very insulting for the owner of the dog if someone were to call him and ask if they can buy his dog.. You would have to explain how you were able to get his number and why you would want to buy his dog. Also I don’t think the salon can even give you his number.. I’m pretty sure that is against the law..??
If the owner or staff think the dog is being abused then they need to handle it. Maybe just tell the staff “if” it ever gets to that point give them your number and tell them you would be interested.
